她沮丧地继续在房间里爬来爬去,寻找剪刀或其他任何锋利的东西来割断绳子。但她一无所获。A mysterious Fiat Qubo has been abandoned in a remote, little-traveled area. Officer Alba, out on patrol, approaches the vehicle. Earlier, she received a report about a recent robbery, and the vehicle used by the suspects matches the description. As she gets closer, she realizes it is indeed the same car.
The suspects must be nearby.
Alba is alone. She tries to call for backup, but there is no signal in this isolated location. Nevertheless, she is a brave and determined officer, one of the top graduates of her academy class. She is willing to take risks in order to bring the culprits to justice, even on her own.
She follows a narrow trail through the woods, and her search soon pays off. A masked man is hiding something near a tree. Alba confronts him and orders him to surrender.
The man appears surprisingly calm. He politely replies that she should be more concerned about his partner standing right behind her.
Alba scoffs at the obvious distraction and says she is not foolish enough to fall for such a trick. A moment later, however, strong hands grab her shoulders from behind. Her weapon is taken away, and a hand is quickly clamped over her mouth.
Her pursuit is over.
Within moments, Alba is securely tied with ropes and gagged on-screen with a cleave gag. The two criminals quickly realize they can no longer leave their loot hidden in the woods. They will have to move it elsewhere—and now they also have an inconvenient witness to deal with.
Alba struggles furiously, but there is little she can do when the stronger of the two men lifts her over his shoulder and carries her back to the Qubo. He opens the trunk and places her inside.
The car drives away, carrying Alba toward an isolated house that serves as the criminals' hideout.
Once inside the house, Alba is briefly ungagged. The moment does not last long. She immediately threatens the two men, warning them about the severe consequences they face for their long list of crimes. Amused by her determination, they silence her again by placing several layers of duct tape across her mouth.
This time she is tied with far more rope by both men and left struggling in the living room.
Alone, Alba does everything she can to free herself. She notices a telephone near the sofa and painstakingly works her way toward it, hoping to call for help. Unfortunately, the phone turns out to be nothing more than an old decorative antique.
Frustrated, she continues to crawl and hop around the room, searching for scissors or anything sharp enough to cut the ropes. She finds nothing useful.
